An implication of this law is that adiabatic demagnetization cannot be used to bring down a system to thermal energies below kBT [kay-bee-tee]. One consequence of this law is that expansivity coefficients, constant volume heat capacity, and the slope of P-T curves on a phase diagram must all approach zero at certain conditions. Sometimes called the Nernst heat theorem, it implies that at a certain temperature, any chemical reaction cannot generate entropy. For 10 points, identify this law which states that at absolute zero, the entropy of a perfect compound is zero, which comes after a law about the increase of entropy for irreversible processes.
